A buddy of mine gave me a white maine coon kitten today, aged 2 month +. Very playful and active.

Any recommendations on dry and wet food for that breed? And suggestions how to rotate wet and dry.

I just bought RC Kitten 36 small pack just for starter (recommendations from the pet shop), but my friend said RC is no good . But i search online RC also have Babycat 34, are those any difference?

And for this maine coon am thinking giving him the best food he could get. At the pet store they carried brand like orijen, evo, purina pro plan, rc, iams, blackwood.

hi guys, so here is my story...
i have adopted two kitties..one is quite like tabby + white coloured male and the other one is calico female. both are domestics. i hv had them since July last year. I cudnt get their age right...when i got them both, the previous owner who took care of them said they are almost 5 mths. but i can see the calico female is quite petite..somewhat over 3-4mths...then the male tabby is quite big for his age. i did spayed the male tabby after a month or so...so he is getting quite chubby, meanwhile the calico female is still in 'prestine' condition (not yet spay) and petite even she's getting older. so recently, both of them got some fleas on their body which i noticed last friday, it was horrible to see those bloody bugs running around their furs. i was quite shocked because i did left them in their cage when im away from home since 28th January then came back around 8th February and let my family fend them of course..but none of them realised that my fur babies got them fleas. even my dad's domestic long hair black cat got it, nobody aware of that. i brought them for ivomex shot except the DLH black cat, because i only have budgets for my two cats. before that, i did shampoo-ed them with flea & tick shampoo but not that effective. so the next day, i went to the petshop to buy those flea collars and some advantage spot on for fleas. i dunno if those things are enough to battle the fleas..im quite panicked a bit but calmed down eventually when i try to look for those bloody bugs in their furs...i didnt saw them running around but quite a few did fell on the bed and some on the blanket. i hope they are gone for good...

so did anyone have this kind of situation with the cats?? pls share your experiences and opinions...thank you

Thanks! Really a female. Haha.
I thought so lucky found a Male Calico.

Any tips on reducing cat's poo poo smell?
My cats poopoo (sometimes fart) are really stinky. Not sure is it due to the dry food they eat.

hah i've used cat-it before as well and can confirm the products effectiveness when it comes to covering the smell
it is also the most expensive compared to most cat litter brands. and because its non clumping, you'll need to empty the box and clean it at least once a week.

i am currently trying tidycats at the moment which seems alright (not as effective as cat-it crystal litter) but almost half the price. more budget friendly and affordable to change the sands every 3-5 days.
good thing my 2 kittens are not fussy tho. i've changed like 4 type/brand of litter already

my cat is now 8 years old and she suddenly developed a habit of searching the garbage bin for our left over dinners.

does anyone know why? is she senile now? lol.

Spraying water is generally frowned upon these days.

A cat that is 8 years or older is considered a senior cat.

im new to this world.it is not almost a year i can finally hold a cat but even before i can feed them only putting the food on the floor.well i got 2 cats from my uncle..the first cat that my family get ,gave birth to 2 kiitens and the other was adopted by us last august.the problem is one of the kittens was diagnosed to have sporo fungal.the kitten name was Lulu

FEBRUARY:I went to government veterinar to treat her ears.the wound on her ear keep getting smaller .

SUNDAY MARCH 1:  LULU was seem to be inactive and keep hiding around the corner and vomitting,I brought her to government vet because i cant afford because i am fresh graduates who still looking for a job..but officer said that LULU got feline but they didnt know which one .i was confused as they didnt state which feline virus LULU was diagnosed.but they saw the bruise hidden under her fur on her upper back and said let delay the bruise for later treatment.so as they prescribe antibiotic and antibody but LULU seems to be still weak and have some bad odour on her wound.one week passed the fur on bump kept fall off and the wound seems to be worsen so i thought it is one after effect of the antibiotics.

8 march yesterday:in the afternoon i saw LULU back got worsen so i quickly when to nearest private vet, the doctor diagnosed LULU and said she got sporo ,she asked me to let LULU with her (forever).my mother seems to agree with her as my parents still have 4 children who still in school,college and university, and they cant afford the sporo treatment no more.

i cried and begged my mom to let me take care of LULU as i still available right now.from what i have read the treatment may cost a lot.my mom only gave me two weeks to see how LULU was progressing and it has cost rm175 already and my mom said she can only afford it for two weeks.im desperate right now.

the vet said it is going to cost more after this and my mother said  she dont any money to spend on this treatment anymore.should i gave up?this is the first time i ever love a cat and this happen.and i also staying with my grandparents.i afraid it will affect other cat and my family member

i read some of cats who survived sporo but it is going to cost money.Help

actually different sources does mention that cats do gain weight easily after neutering/spaying
http://pets.thenest.com/neutering-cat-make...-fat-11320.html
don't get me wrong though. i will spay/neuter my cat no matter what. even tho my cat doesnt leave my condo, i don't want my cat doing her mating call in the middle of the night when her 1st heat comes... lol

plus neutering/spaying removes health risk involving reproduction organs. 

and weight problems that comes after neutering/spaying can be handled like u said through proper dieting & exercise.

Guys just out of curiosity, what wet food do you feed your little ones?
I give her Sheba or Fancy Feast Royale.
I noticed that Sheba has got a lot of gel (I believe this is starch), but not as much as Royale. Nowadays I remove all the gel and starchy content before feeding her.

What about you guys? Any particular brands? Or home made meals are the best? Boiled chicken/ fish?

Thanks.

But wouldn't that make them fat?

That's why I'm looking for alternatives, besides the fact that the starch/ gel is about 30% of the content

I hope she's doing better now

royal canin 4kg - RM76
Nutrience 5kg - RM89

Cheap ?
